Fuel tap

<< < (2/3) > >>

Laverda Dave:
If the rubber disc is ripped or damaged my guess is it will have to be replaced. I dont know if you can get these as a seperate item? You could try making one from the correct thickness of Viton sheet but I think the original has a moulded lip on the edge. I would try the new O-Ring(s) first as it's a cheap and easy fix to do.

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
The kit I bought from DS consisted of strainer, large rubber bit with holes as post plus 2 O rings and the  connector. I used my original connector as it was brass rather than plated steel.

Al,
I had lots of trouble trying to find a tap for the M20 size fitting on my 400 tank - the old tap was a bit knackered and thought I'd quickly get a new one and play with restoring the original at leisure.
In the end got one from 4into1 in the US which so far seems fine - total cost was around £38 including postage and customs charges.
Still bemused that all the taps I could find are M16 yet I've got three 400 tanks all of which have the M20 size.

Cheers,
Andy

Hi Andy

Thanks for the info

I will look into that site and also see what other goodies they do as due to fully restore my tank next with a paint job and a new cap so a new tap would finish all off

Again many thanks Al
